If you think _THIS_ is a tight group, I certainly hope that you never post a 
similar note to a message board.  We _do_ at least have regulations against 
flames here.  Things are certainly _not_ going to loosen up for vendors, who 
are already under tight restrictions on BPCS_L (_NOT_ BPICS-L).  The list has 
been in existence for nearly four years, and the tone is certainly not going 
to change at this point.

As a vendor, I would think that you would want to limit the use of 
misspellings for a list sent to nearly a thousand of your potential 
customers, especially as regards the spelling of BPCS.  That should go double 
for your "for for".

Technically, you violated list guidelines by posting a vendor solution here 
for which nobody expressed interest.  Rather than ban every single e-mail 
from your smartlinc.net address from BPCS-L in perpetuity on a first offense, 
I'll let your original missive stand as a testament to the level of interest 
your company pays to details -- allowing members of this list to draw their 
own conclusions.  By the way, change the "Subject" heading when the subject 
changes...
